Travel
We'd recommend staying staying in the Boone area. If you're coming from out-of-state, book a flight to the Charlotte-Douglas International airport and you can drive from there to the NC mountains. You can reserve through our room block (linked below) or book an airbnb in the Boone area.
Jefferson area is closer to the ceremony location and would also be a good spot to stay if you prefer. You can stay there or in Boone, but there are fewer options in Jefferson as it is a smaller area. Our welcome party will be in Boone, and the ceremony/reception on our wedding day will be about 30 minutes away in Jefferson!
Flight
Charlotte Douglas International Airport
The Charlotte-Douglas Airport is the closest hub to fly into, with about a 2-hour drive to Boone and Jefferson. RDU is another great option but it is 2 hours and 45 minutes away.
